Hi im here because i dont know what is the problem on my plugin!
Im police and when i change my skin to a model my guns disappear.
How can i solve that?

changing models means your ped gets replaced with a new ped. So that new ped doesn’t have your old ped’s weapons, you’ll need to save all weapons, attachments, tints, ammo, etc before changing skins, then restore it afterwards.

Can u teach me how to do that?

Oh that means that i need to be without guns and then change models right?

no, you need to save the weapons (checking for each weapon if the player has them, then checking all possible weapon components to see if any of them are attached to a weapon, then also save ammo and weapon tint related data) then give all those things back to the player after they’ve changed skins.

So im police and use esx_policejob in cloakroom i put one model and when i change the models i lose my guns so can u teach me how to do that?

i already said it twice, and no im not going to code it for you. It’s not hard, but it takes time to do.

For example, code from VRP (by imagic):

local weapon_types = {
  "WEAPON_KNIFE",
  "WEAPON_STUNGUN",
  "WEAPON_FLASHLIGHT",

  "WEAPON_BRIEFCASE_02",
  "WEAPON_BALL",

}



function getWeapons()
  local player = GetPlayerPed(-1)

  local ammo_types = {} 

  local weapons = {}
  for k,v in pairs(weapon_types) do
    local hash = GetHashKey(v)
    if HasPedGotWeapon(player,hash) then
      local weapon = {}
      weapons[v] = weapon

      local atype = Citizen.InvokeNative(0x7FEAD38B326B9F74, player, hash)
      if ammo_types[atype] == nil then
        ammo_types[atype] = true
        weapon.ammo = GetAmmoInPedWeapon(player,hash)
      else
        weapon.ammo = 0
      end
    end
  end

  return weapons
end


function giveWeapons(weapons, clear_before)
  local player = GetPlayerPed(-1)

  if clear_before then
    RemoveAllPedWeapons(player,true)
  end

  for k,weapon in pairs(weapons) do
    local hash = GetHashKey(k)
    local ammo = weapon.ammo or 0

    GiveWeaponToPed(player, hash, ammo, false)
  end
end


function setArmour(amount)
  SetPedArmour(GetPlayerPed(-1), amount)
end

function getArmour()
  return GetPedArmour(GetPlayerPed(-1))
end

function setHealth(amount)
  SetEntityHealth(GetPlayerPed(-1), math.floor(amount))
end

function getHealth()
  return GetEntityHealth(GetPlayerPed(-1))
end




function LoadModel(modelhash)

    Citizen.CreateThread(function()
        
        local i = 0        
        while not HasModelLoaded(modelhash) and i < 10000 do
          RequestModel(modelhash)
          Citizen.Wait(10)
          i=i+1
        end

        if HasModelLoaded(modelhash) and IsModelInCdimage(modelhash) and IsModelValid(modelhash) then

          local weapons = getWeapons()
          local armour = getArmour()
          local health = getHealth()

          SetPlayerModel(PlayerId(), modelhash)

          giveWeapons(weapons,true)
          setArmour(armour)
          setHealth(health)

          SetModelAsNoLongerNeeded(modelhash)
        end

        
    end)

end

Would it work for ESX?

12

Yes I fixed

13

could you tell me how? I’ve been searching for days without finding anything

14

Basically, use the above list and run through it with a for loop ex:

for _,weapon in pairs(weapon_types) do
	if HasPedGotWeapon(PlayerPedId(), GetHashKey(weapon), false) then
		-- Check ammo count/skins etc
	end
end

In extended?
